Pioneering Belgian heavy metal band Killer were originally formed in 1980 by guitarist and singer Paul “Shorty” Van Camp and drummer “Fat” Leo (who sadly passed away on February 13th, 2026). Prior to that, both had been active in a rock/blues formation named Mothers Of Track. The classic line-up of Killer was completed by guitarist Ivo “Spooky” Van Doren.
Heavily influenced by the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal and Motörhead, the trio quickly gained a reputation for loud and aggressive heavy/speed metal and, along with Acid and Crossfire, became one of Belgium’s most successful bands.
Signing a record deal with Mausoleum Records, Killer issued a string of classic albums in the early eighties – »Ready For Hell« (1980), »Wall Of Sound« (1982) and »Shock Waves« (1984) – before breaking up for the first time in 1987. A few re-unions and five more albums followed, the last one being »Hellfire« on HNE in 2023.
